+1.

I have a signed copy
Lucky! I brought my copy when I went to hear him speak and wanted to ask him to sign it, but no one else was doing it and didn't want to be THAT person. Now I regret it

this was just fate's way of destining you to be invited to RTK finalist weekend so you can get it signed when you bump into him on the elevator : )

"Pizza" still refers to regular pizza! It has to be specifically "deep dish" in order to get the solid block of cheese and meat

ETA: i just don't want anyone to order pizza and then be disappointed

I agree with Ben, this should have 0 impact. Now mind you, I totally understand freaking about JS1s. You are talking to the queen of JS1 freakouts. But I feel like you are guaranteed at least an interview. So keep your chin up.

Thanks both!

When I said I was a gay athiest they stopped calling. I don't know if I've ever seen someone try to end a conversation so quickly.

I have a friend who always used "I'm gay and broke" whenever the Red Cross tried to get his blood or money.

Haha. No. I am coming up with my next poll for the HLS thread. I'm starting to regret becoming the OP, since my hopes and dreams are dying rapidly.

everything by guster. or anything by guster. also dispatch.

Oh I just tell them I got a new tattoo so I can't for a year... has it been true? no, but the HQ is so disorganized and when I've gone there to donate I've had an appt and ended up waiting over an hour just to start. Their loss.

I thought they still don't accept blood from MSMs?
